Benediction. i George Rutherford, who works at Farrow's barber shop, was brought' into Magistrate Player's court Wed-j nesday on a charge of malicious injury to property belonging to Mr. C. H. Dudley. It appears that Mr. Dudley employed the negro to make a drive in his auto transfer and during the drive the motor was so badly dam-1 aged as to necessitate its being taken O A to the garage for repairs. As the amount asked for exceeded the amount coming under the jurisdiction of the magistrate's court, Rutherford was given a preliminary hearing and the case sent up to higher court. The negro was committed to jail, but was released Thursday morning under a $200 bond. The young son of Mr. Billie Motes' of Gar\'s Lane fell from a barn window Sunday afternoon and broke his left arm at the wrist.

' \ World Film corporation present the I five-part photo-play "The Flash of an i Emerald." produced by Mons. 'Albert j Capellani. Kooert warwicK carries tnis pnoio- i i plav on his broad shoulders; he has I to work very hard, for the character I he portrays is singularly complex in its ivillanies. As Lucius Waldeck -he is thief and near-murderer;then he poses as a revolutionary from Russia and is! popular with the women. But he is a clumsy thief. He presents the emerald to the daughter of the woman from whom he robbed it. His- fate was sealed by that act, of course. His adventues multiplied; but 'nis end was inevitable. He committed suicide. Tbey always do?these polished ad venturers who lea/ve the human element out of calculation in their villianies. Albert Capellani is the producer of this picture, which, has an excellent cast and some fine settings, which include a view of the procession to the shrine of Saint Anne of Beaupre, in Canada, taken especially for this ^picture. "The Flash of an Emerald" will be shown at the opera house on Tuesday, January 18. ' K % * THE C030IERCIAI, BANK. x Places Ten Thousand Dollars to Sur. pins Account?
